Miserable First Outbreak!!!

Been to the hospital 3 times this week. Was diagnosed with UTI and then told I had a yeast infection (they're easy to get with diabetes). The antibiotics weren't helping and everything was getting way worse. I couldn't sit, walk, or sleep without being in agony. Peeing has been so excruciating I've been screaming into a towel, getting nauseated and felt like passing out. I went to a different hospital and they were gonna do a cervic exam (kind of like a Pap smear) but then decided to just swab a sore down there for a culture. The dr told me it was genital herpes and it was very common. I've only been with my boyfriend of eight months and he has never had signs or symptoms of herpes. I'm on day 4 of acyclovir and peeing still hurts but it's not unbearable anymore. I've also been wearing pads because of all the yellowish discharge. Today, I was standing up and thought I had felt more discharge so I went to the bathroom and it was bloody. Is this normal??????????????

I would go back to your ob and explain why you are bleeding, it could one or two reasons. 1. Can be you have cervical cancer which is associated with herpes or your blisters are getting worse and there bleeding?

Bleeding is not normal with herpes, so if it's not your period, I would get that checked out. Lots of yellow discharge isn't typical either. If there's any discharge with herpes, it's typically watery. Could be BV, which can be associated with herpes. Herpes is not associated with cervical cancer, by the way (that would be HPV), and again, bleeding is not typical with herpes lesions. Perhaps it's because you have diabetes, I don't know, but I would definitely see a doctor about it. All the best.
